Heat the cacao butter in a pan over low heat until just melted, stirring continuously. Remove from the heat.
Add the cocoa powder and powdered sweetener and stir until combined. (***see notes)
Add any optional extra (1 teaspoon orange zest/pinch cinnamon/pinch of sea salt/pinch of chili/1/3 cup (50g) low carb granola/handful of nuts and seeds and stir
Fill into a silicone chocolate mould to make chocolate bars. Or pour onto parchment paper to make chocolate bark/clusters.

0.6g net carbs per serving. Makes 12 servings.
** I have made this recipe with both powdered erythritol and allulose. Allulose makes smoother chocolate because it does not recrystallise.
*** Optional step: Blend the cocoa powder and sweetener in a high-speed blender to a very fine powder before adding it to the melted cacao butter. This reduces any graininess.
I calculated on the basis of 12 generous portions. My recipe made 2 chocolate bars with 24 squares each. Each portion of 4 chocolate squares weighed around 12 grams.
If you add the ⅓ cup (50g) of peanut butter granola as I did in the second round when I made the bark and the clusters, the nutrition increases to 103 calories and 0.9 net carbs per portion.
